Can you get PIP while working?
Yes. GOV.UK states that you can get Personal Independence Payment even if you are working, have savings or are getting most other benefits. PIP is not means tested, so wages, hours and savings do not reduce it. What the assessment looks at is how your condition affects the daily living and mobility activities in the PIP rules, which is a separate question from whether you have a job. Working does not remove eligibility, and neither does it prove that the activities are manageable.
The rule in one line
No earnings limit and no savings limit for PIP.
What the source does not settle
Payability can still change for reasons unrelated to work, for example a stay in hospital or a care home, or leaving Great Britain. Those must be reported to the Department for Work and Pensions.
